The Video Games Thread II - The Resurrection

[Alan]

Also just bought 30 days of WoW gametime

I'm really trying to self destruct this week

Way better use of time than FIFA tbf.

PES 2006 with Ronaldo and Zlatan up front for Inter was peak footballing. Still my fave game.

more of a fifa 12 akinfenwa/heskey kinda guy

99 pace Theo Walcott bombing down the wings.

I've been doing that with Traore. It's funny having a wolves player as part of the meta; semedo is also meta. I also have raul and neves in my team though, so I feel less bad about pace whoring with Adama. I also have Jota on the left, womp womp.

Adriano? Ronaldo left Inter in 2002. Adriano was ridiculously overpowered in those games if I recall but he looked like the next big thing around that time.

 

[The Bear]

Ah dammit yes Adrian not Ronaldo. I knew it didn't quite sound right.

The most fun I ever had with FUT was playing with a team of only silver cards from African countries. There was a forward named Casimir Ninga who got an absolutely ridiculous IF silver who I built my last main squad around. Made beating teams of the usual suspects (Neymar/Ronaldo, Messi, etc) all the sweeter, even if it did mean that I was liable for a few utter wallopings each week.

 

[b3h]

Been playing FUT Rivals with my silver teams this year. Gameplay and sweaty tactics piss me off so just thought I'd try my own thing. I'm floating around division 5 at the moment. Getting a win is funny and feels good. Losing... not as fussed as I'm using silvers ffs!

 

[Quirkafleeg]

Ive just brought FM 21 is there anybody who has this and would it be worth starting a standalone thread if possible ?

 

[Carrotdude]

There is a football manager thread somewhere I believe

 

[Quirkafleeg]

I couldnt find it sorry. Ill search again.

 

[Hereford Wolf]

Has anybody ever finished AC Odyssey?

I'm 90 hours in and have hardly gone to any of the places on the map.

Really enjoying it!

 

[Langers]

I finished the main campaign mode and the cultists questline etc but I've still not made a dent on the DLC. It's bloody huge.

Fifa 21 does look the part on the next-gen consoles, it’s shame barely anyone can get the new consoles with scalpers scooping them up as fast as they become available

 

[Tredman]

Got an Xbox fairly easy for one of our kids for Xmas.

Series X? The only ones I’ve seen available are the Series S

 

[Tredman]

Yeah. Sign up to stockinformer and be quick if you get a notification. Took me less than a day to get one from AO.

Cheers Tred, did do that with the Ps5 and have struggled to get the Ps5 had Amazon cancel an order on me. Going to use a local shop in Blackpool who I normally go as he’s got one for me next week.

 

[James]

Got myself a ps5 today (a massive positive after the game today) very impressed with the controller although its a little bulky and needs some getting used to and the console is HUGE (as pictured next to the ps4). Didn’t pay scalper price either so that helped.
